# Metro > Metro is a Discord bot and website that adds a player economy to private servers of ER:LC (Emergency Response: Liberty County), a Roblox game. It reads each server through the official PRC Private Server API and pays players for what they do in game: delivery and taxi jobs, on-duty shifts, answering 911 calls, races and more. Players spend that money on cars, licences, perks, property and businesses. Responders and dispatchers get a free CAD fed by the live game (units, calls, a dispatch console, records, warrants, BOLOs, civilian characters with ID cards, courts, radio and a panic button), staff get traffic cameras and staff accountability, and owners can run a government with elections. Everything is managed on a dashboard at metrobot.app. Metro is free, with an optional Plus plan at USD 4.99 per month per server. Metro is for two groups: - Server owners and staff who run an ER:LC private server with a Discord community. They connect the server once with `/setup` (the ER:LC Server-Key and a log channel), pick a starting template, and manage everything else on the dashboard. - Players on those servers. They link their Roblox account to Discord with `/verify`, then earn and spend money with slash commands and on the website. Key facts: - Money and progress belong to one server. Balances never move between servers. - The Discord to Roblox link is shared across every server that runs Metro. - Metro runs beside a server's existing staff bots. It never needs a Roblox password. - Free includes jobs, banking, cars, licences, crime, crews, races, cameras, the CAD (units, calls, dispatch, records, civilians, courts, radio, panic and `;cad` from game chat) and staff tools. Plus adds government, property, businesses, bounties, crew territory and wars, event seasons and the calendar, Metro Dispatch (an automated voice dispatcher, in beta), and higher limits. Only the Discord server owner can buy Plus. ## Documentation - [Full reference](https://metrobot.app/llms-full.txt): every feature, command, dashboard page, setting, default and limit in one plain-text file, with a command index, a glossary and an FAQ. - [Help guide](https://metrobot.app/help-guide.txt): setup step by step, every slash command, the dashboard areas, Plus, troubleshooting keyed to what the dashboard shows, and what Metro support handles, in short sections. ## Product - [Home](https://metrobot.app/): what Metro does, with the real dashboard running on a demo server, and the link to add the bot to Discord. - [Pricing](https://metrobot.app/pricing): what Free includes, what Plus adds, and the Plus price of USD 4.99 per month per server. - [Verify](https://metrobot.app/verify): link a Roblox account to a Discord account, by signing in with Roblox or with a code typed in ER:LC chat. - [Changelog](https://metrobot.app/changelog): new features and fixes that owners and players will notice, newest first.
